We are a chronic illness message board forum/blog/ring created by and for those with the disorders of CFIDS, FMS, CMPD, ME, ADDISON'S, CHRONIC MIGRAINE, and other chronic pain related "invisible" illnesses. We encompass many of them and offer friendship, support, HOPE, and help for those struggling daily with these things. We are a fun and genuinely loving group who is willing and able to reach beyond ourselves to give a bit of time to others. You are welcome to join if you offer much of the same. We are a G-rated Web Ring Society and ask that your site/message board/blog, meet that criteria as well, to belong to the Foggy Bloggers.(no exceptions to this rule!). We prefer message board formats with a standard home page to refer to whenever possible. This encourages active participation in the community as a whole, and repeated visits. The Foggy Bloggers title refers to those days when the disorders take over our thought processes, and we get "fogged in" just trying to think through the day, and indicates our need for some friends to relate to that whole thing. We discuss our aches, pains, fog, family, friends, cats, dogs, spouses, frustrations, aggravations, etc... but we also help support one another in ALL things. We encourage, uplift, offer kindness, help, hope, information, and much valuable time for one another. If you wish to join our Ring, please plan to actively support not only your own site/s, but also the other sites listed in our ring membership by referring your visitors to their listed site/s. We exist to help and promote each other fully. Failure to support others on our list will result in removal from the ring. Please keep your sites/forums current. If you do not have daily participation at your site, you will not be considered for this community. Update often. Participation can be nominal, but there must be daily visits by at least the site owner/administrator or moderator. If your site is an outstanding support group site that you wish to promote in our ring, and you have good things to offer, We'd love to hear from you and to welcome you into The Foggy Bloggers Web Ring! MBA Boards, or restricted Boards will not be allowed in the Foggy Bloggers. You must have Boards, Blogs, Sites that are open to the general public and non-descriminatory in nature. My name is linda and I have endured Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction/ME, Fibromyalgia and Chronic Myofascial Pain Syndrome for over 30 years. This with a host of other health concerns. I have been a support leader/advocate for years. I am proud of each of these sites who have joined our Foggy Bloggers - they all offer great insight and information and help...as well as hope for those who suffer daily. We'd love for you to join us!
